Who else is fighting on the UFC 296: Leon Edwards vs. Colby Covington card?
After two unsuccessful attempts at securing the 170 lbs. gold against Kamaru Usman, Covington will look to dethrone the Brit who took the crown from the former champion with a historic head kick. This would be the American's first appearance inside the UFC octagon in the 20 months that passed since his grudge match with friend-turned-foe, Jorge Masvidal.
Meanwhile, in the co-headliner, Pantoja will be making his first title defense since beating Brandon Moreno for the flyweight belt in July.
Elsewhere on the card, veteran Stephen Thompson will take on touted future welterweight title challenger Shavkat Rakhmonov. Tony Ferguson, who hasn't had a win since 2019 and has been testing his limits of late in David Goggins' 'Hell Week' training, will lock horns with Paddy Pimblett in a lightweight clash.
The main card will be kicked off by another welterweight bout between Ian Machado Garry and Vicente Luque.
The prelims of UFC 296 are pretty stacked as well, featuring a bantamweight fight between Cody Garbrandt and Brian Kelleher, a featherweight contest between Bryce Mitchell and Josh Emmett, a women's flyweight battle between Casey O'Neill and Ariane Lipski, and a women's bantamweight bout between Irene Aldana and Karol Rosa.
